The Beach Boys

In September 2021, The Beach Boys performed 'God Only Knows' at the Washington State Fair, captivating fans with their classic sound. This live recording showcases their enduring talent, especially considering it came after their album 'So Tough' in 1970, marking them as legends in the music scene for over five decades. At this point in their career, the group had transitioned through numerous styles and lineups, with Brian Wilson’s intricate harmonies still shining through their performances. The song itself, a timeless love anthem, further solidifies the band's legacy, particularly with its lush arrangements resonating with audiences both young and old. It's fascinating to see how a band, originally thriving in surf rock, still connects deeply with listeners, reminding us all why their music remains beloved.
